If they plan to win they should bring Kostitsyn back. The Bourque trade is looking bad unless you include Gally. The Gill trade is pretty much Gill for Thrower at this point, I think?

Looks like Gomez and/or Kaberle will be bought out depending on the new CBA.

Plekanec is likely out for the first month of a condensed season. We'll see how Markov holds up with that many games.

I'd leave Galchenyuk in the minors, re-sign Darche, and use Eller on the second line. Wait and see if the team is competitive with the new 3rd/4th lines and more experienced defence. I'd try to sign Kostitsyn one year if they don't look bad. If they look good call up Galchenyuk.
